You can control how much of your information social media websites make public by visiting these websites and changing your privacy settings.

When does Dentexion use customer information from third parties?

We receive some information from third parties when you contact us. For example, when you submit your email address to us to show interest in becoming a Dentexion customer, we receive information from a third party that provides automated fraud detection services to Dentexion. We also occasionally collect information that is made publicly available on social media websites. You can control how much of your information social media websites make public by visiting these websites and changing your privacy settings.

Do we share the information we collect with third parties?

We may share the information that we collect, both personal and non-personal, with our business partners. If we are involved in a merger, asset sale or other business reorganisation, we may also share or transfer your personal and non-personal information to our successors-in-interest.

We may engage trusted third-party service providers to perform functions and provide services to us, such as hosting and maintaining our servers and the website/app, database storage and management, e-mail management, storage marketing, credit card processing, customer service and fulfilling orders for products and services you may purchase through the website/app. We will likely share your personal and possibly some non-personal information with these third parties to enable them to perform these services for you and us.

We may share portions of our log file data, including IP addresses, for analytics purposes with third parties such as web analytics partners, application developers, and ad networks. If your IP address is shared, it may be used to estimate general location and other technographic such as connection speed, whether you have visited the website/app in a shared location, and the type of device used to visit the website/app. They may aggregate information about our advertising and what you see on the website/app and then provide auditing, research and reporting for our advertisers and us. 

We may also disclose personal and non-personal information about you to the government or law enforcement officials, or private parties as we, in our sole discretion, believe necessary or appropriate to respond to claims, legal process (including subpoenas), to protect our rights and interests or those of a third party, the safety of the public or any person, to prevent or stop any illegal, unethical, or legally actionable activity, or to otherwise comply with applicable court orders, laws, rules and regulations. 

Where and when is information collected from customers and end users?

Dentexion will collect the personal information that you submit to us. We may also receive your personal information from third parties as described above.

How Do We Use Your Email Address?

By submitting your email address on this website/app, you agree to receive emails from us. We will send you information regarding your account in our platform and any changes to the platform which we believe will affect you as a customer.

How Long Do We Keep Your Information?

We keep your information only so long as we need it to provide Dentexion to you and fulfil the purposes described in this policy. This is also the case for anyone we share your information with and who carries out services on our behalf. When we no longer need to use your information and we don’t need to keep it to comply with our legal or regulatory obligations, we’ll either remove it from our systems or depersonalize it so that we can’t identify you.

How Do We Protect Your Information?

We implement a variety of security measures to maintain the safety of your personal information when you place an order or enter, submit, or access your personal information. We offer the use of a secure server. All supplied sensitive/credit information is transmitted via Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology and then encrypted into our Payment gateway providers’ database only to be accessible by those authorised with special access rights to such systems and are required to keep the information confidential. After a transaction, your private information (credit cards, social security numbers, financials, etc.) is never kept on file. We cannot, however, ensure or warrant the absolute security of any information you transmit to Dentexion or guarantee that your information on the Service may not be accessed, disclosed, altered, or destroyed by a breach of any of our physical, technical, or managerial safeguards.

Could my information be transferred to other countries?

Dentexion is incorporated in Switzerland. Information collected via our website, through direct interactions with you, or from the use of our help services may be transferred from time to time to our offices or personnel, or to third parties, located throughout the world. It may be viewed and hosted anywhere in the world, including countries that may not have laws of general applicability regulating the use and transfer of such data. To the fullest extent allowed by applicable law, by using any of the above, you voluntarily consent to the trans-border transfer and hosting of such information.

Is the information collected through the Dentexion Service secure?

We take precautions to protect the security of your information. We have physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to help safeguard, prevent unauthorised access, maintain data security, and correctly use your information. However, neither people nor security systems are foolproof, including encryption systems. In addition, people can commit intentional crimes, make mistakes or fail to follow policies. Therefore, while we use reasonable efforts to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security. If applicable law imposes any non-disclaimable duty to protect your personal information, you agree that intentional misconduct will be the standard to measure our compliance with that duty.

Can I update or correct my information?

The rights you have to request updates or corrections to the information Dentexion collects depend on your relationship with Dentexion. Personnel may update or correct their information as detailed in our internal company employment policies.

Customers have the right to request the restriction of certain uses and disclosures of personally identifiable information as follows. You can contact us to (1) update or correct your personally identifiable information, (2) change your preferences concerning communications and other information you receive from us, or (3) delete the personally identifiable information maintained about you on our systems (subject to the following paragraph), by cancelling your account. Such updates, corrections, changes and deletions will not affect other information that we maintain or information that we have provided to third parties in accordance with this Privacy Policy prior to such update, correction or deletion. To protect your privacy and security, we may take reasonable steps (such as requesting a unique password) to verify your identity before granting you profile access or making corrections. You are responsible for maintaining the secrecy of your unique password and account information at all times.

You should be aware that it is not technologically possible to remove every record of the information you provided us from our system. The need to back up our systems to protect information from inadvertent loss means that a copy of your information may exist in a non-erasable form that will be difficult or impossible for us to locate. Promptly after receiving your request, all personal information stored in databases we actively use, and other readily searchable media will be updated, corrected, changed or deleted, as appropriate, as soon as and to the extent reasonably and technically practicable.

If you are an end-user and wish to update, delete, or receive any information we have about you, you may contact the organisation of which you are a customer.

Personnel

If you are a Dentexion worker or applicant, we collect the information you voluntarily provide to us. We use the information collected for Human Resources purposes to administer benefits to workers and screen applicants.

You may contact us to (1) update or correct your information, (2) change your preferences concerning communications and other information you receive from us, or (3) receive a record of the information we have relating to you. Such updates, corrections, changes and deletions will not affect other information that we maintain or information that we have provided to third parties in accordance with this Privacy Policy prior to such update, correction or deletion.

Sale of Business

We reserve the right to transfer information to a third party in the event of a sale, merger or other transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of Dentexion or any of its Corporate Affiliates (as defined herein), or that portion of Dentexion or any of its Corporate Affiliates to which the Service relates, or if we discontinue our business or file a petition or have filed against us a petition in bankruptcy, reorganisation or similar proceeding, provided that the third party agrees to adhere to the terms of this Privacy Policy.

Affiliates

We may disclose information (including personal information) about you to our Corporate Affiliates. For purposes of this Privacy Policy, “Corporate Affiliate” means any person or entity directly or indirectly controlled by or under common control with Dentexion, whether by ownership or otherwise. Those Corporate Affiliates will treat any information relating to you that we provide to our Corporate Affiliates by the terms of this Privacy Policy.

The laws of Switzerland govern this Privacy Policy without regard to its conflict of laws provision. You consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts in connection with any action or dispute arising between the parties under or in connection with this Privacy Policy except for those individuals who may have rights to make claims under Privacy Shield or the Swiss-US framework.

The laws of Switzerland, excluding its conflicts of law rules, shall govern this Agreement and your use of the website/app. Your use of the website/app may also be subject to other local, state, national, or international laws.

Using Dentexion or contacting us directly signifies your acceptance of this Privacy Policy. If you disagree with this Privacy Policy, you should not engage with our website or use our services. Continued use of the website, direct engagement with us, or following the posting of changes to this Privacy Policy that do not significantly affect the use or disclosure of your personal information will mean that you accept those changes.

Information about General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)

We may collect and use your information if you are from the European Economic Area (EEA). In this section of our Privacy Policy, we will explain exactly how and why this data is collected and how we maintain this data under protection from being replicated or used incorrectly.

What is GDPR?

GDPR is an EU-wide privacy and data protection law that regulates how companies protect EU residents’ data and enhance the control the EU residents have over their personal data.

The GDPR is relevant to any globally operating company, not just EU-based businesses and EU residents. Our customers’ data is important irrespective of their location, so we have implemented GDPR controls as our baseline standard for all our operations worldwide.

What is personal data?

Any data that relates to an identifiable or identified individual. GDPR covers a broad spectrum of information that could be used on its own or in combination with other pieces of information to identify a person. Personal data extends beyond a person’s name or email address. Some examples include financial information, political opinions, genetic data, biometric data, IP addresses, physical addresses, sexual orientation, and ethnicity.

The Data Protection Principles include requirements such as:

  • Personal data collected must be processed fairly, legally, and transparently and should only be used in a way that a person would reasonably expect.
  • Personal data should only be collected to fulfill a specific purpose, and it should only be used for that purpose. Organisations must specify why they need personal data when they collect it.
  • Personal data should be held no longer than necessary to fulfill its purpose.
  • People covered by the GDPR have the right to access their own personal data. They can also request a copy of their data and that their data be updated, deleted, restricted, or moved to another organisation.

Why is GDPR important?

GDPR adds new requirements regarding how companies should protect individuals’ personal data that they collect and process. It also raises the stakes for compliance by increasing enforcement and imposing greater fines for breaches. Beyond these facts, it’s simply the right thing to do. At Dentexion, we strongly believe that your data privacy is very important, and we already have solid security and privacy practices that go beyond this new regulation’s requirements.

Individual Data Subject’s Rights – Data Access, Portability and Deletion

We are committed to helping our customers meet the data subject rights requirements of GDPR. Dentexion processes or stores all personal data in fully vetted, DPA-compliant vendors. We store all conversation and personal data for up to 6 years unless your account is deleted. In this case, we dispose of all data following our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy, but we will not hold it for longer than 60 days.
